  • "This is a lovely farmhouse, very spacious, and cool in the very hot weather that we experienced during our stay."

    It is in a superb, quiet location, with good access to the Totnes area and the coast. We very much appreciated the little touches the owners put in to make our stay so enjoyable. We only visited the local pub in Halwell once, but the food and service was excellent, being particularly good with children.

    Glad you enjoyed your stay and opportunity to visit old haunts. Property Owner

Gripstone Farmhouse is a large, light and very spacious characterful four-bedroom detached house perfect for families and friends seeking a country escape in a Devonshire rural idyll.

Enter up the private driveway, with ample parking for 4 cars.

Reach the multi-levelled rear terrace from steps, where the large patio and vast lawn offer a space for older children to play, with the option of alfresco pizzas from the garden oven or BBQ.

The charming and spacious interior of the farmhouse boasts lots of features including a stained glass window, beams and oak flooring.

From the hallway, there’s a boot room for coats and shoes, and a utility for all your laundry requirements.

The spacious sitting room is a haven for relaxation, with soft sofas and armchairs, a large stone hearth with woodburning stove for those cosier evenings in, and access to the rear garden.

The separate dining room comfortably sits 10, ideal for gatherings and reminiscing over the day’s adventures.

The farmhouse kitchen is fully equipped to include an induction hob and a decorative AGA and a coffee maker, with breakfast table and access to the front terrace.

Still on the ground floor, the bedroom has a king-size bed, a feature woodburning stove, access to the terrace and an en-suite wet room with WC and basin.

Stairs to the first floor open into an airy landing with large picture window framing all the garden.

There is a twin bedroom, and an Emperor size bedroom both with dual aspect, both with en-suite shower rooms and ample storage space.

The fourth welcoming and roomy bedroom offers a king, with a sofa for you to put your feet up.

About the location

DARTMOUTH

Totnes 12 miles.

Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.
